A manual /compact ends at an idle prompt without emitting Stop, so nothing in the compact window could ever clear the pane. A worktree that entered the compact `working` stayed `working` until the 30-minute stale sweep -- and the summarizer's start-less SubagentStop kept republishing the row, resetting that clock each time. The correlation added by #12332 was supposed to own this, but it could never run: PreCompact and PostCompact were never added to CLAUDE_EVENTS, so they were never registered with Claude. compactTrigger was always undefined, and the transition guard, the ownership cache, the relay wire field and the ingest branch were all unreachable. Five test files exercised the logic by injecting events past the registration boundary, so the suite stayed green over code that could not execute. Register PostCompact -- and deliberately NOT PreCompact. Measured on Claude Code 2.1.227, a successful manual compact emits PreCompact, a start-less SubagentStop, SessionStart(source=compact), then PostCompact; an ABORTED compact ("Not enough messages to compact") emits PreCompact ALONE. Mapping PreCompact to `working` would strand the pane on every aborted compact, which is the bug being fixed, so the abort guard is structural: Orca never subscribes to the pre-validation event. PostCompact carries its own trigger, so no anchor is needed to tell manual from auto and the correlation machinery is deleted rather than repaired. Manual becomes a `done` with sessionBoundary set -- a finished compact is a session-shaped boundary, not a completed turn, so completion notifications, unread counts and automation-run evidence stay out of it. Auto claims nothing: it runs inside a turn that resumes and emits its own Stop. The source-blind early return that dropped compact events for EVERY provider before its normalizer ran is narrowed to Claude, so it keeps failing closed on a malformed payload without pre-empting other providers. Ownership is kept where the deleted guard had it: a valid provider prompt id is required, a completion clears a row but never creates one (a retired pane must not be resurrected), and a hydrated row is matched on provider session only -- it carries the previous session's connectionId, and older rows carry no session at all, so a strict check would reject the restart case this fixes. A consumed prompt id keeps relay duplicates from refreshing the row. Mixed versions: no new wire field and no new opcode. An older relay normalizes with its own shipped mapping and forwards the event, so ingest drops `auto` envelopes and stamps the boundary on `manual` ones; its replay strips the trigger entirely, so payload state stands in for it while ownership is still enforced. The relay now caches a completion with its compact identity removed, so a client that was offline during the compact still receives the clearing row on reconnect. Tests go red before this change and green after: 6 of 12 in the new registration-gated suite and 5 of 8 in the relay/ingest suite. The harness delivers only events present in CLAUDE_EVENTS, so a fix that is never registered cannot pass -- the failure mode that let the original correlation ship unreachable.
